I just want to add something really important onto this.
ALWAYS READ EVERYTHING YOU CAN ABOUT DRUGS YOU ARE PRESCRIBED!
Sorry for all caps, but it is super important. Not that your dad is in the wrong, lots of people have justified (to a degree) trust in their doctors. However doctors are people and just by that alone aren't perfect.
A few years ago my doctor prescribed me an antibiotic for an ongoing illness I had. I read the entire pamphlet for it and did some reading online about it. All before taking it. Turns out it can cause seizures if it interacts with polypropylene glycol, one of the main ingredients in e-cig juice, which I use daily. I had told my doctor I use an e-cig.
Really I cannot stress how important it is to be knowledgeable about the drugs you are taking.
